3. Adding GMKs C++ files to your project file

You should right click on the T3D folder in the DLL project within Visual Studio. Click 'Add->New Filter' and rename it "logickingMechanics" without the quotes. Right click on the 'logickingMechanics' folder and click 'Add->New Filter' and rename the filter "physics" without the quotes. Right click on the 'physics' folder and click 'Add->New Filter'. Rename it "bullet" without the quotes.
Right click on each of these new folders and click 'Add->Existing Item' and add the files from the appropriate GMK folders. Change the project parameters as shown in the documentation and recompile. Don't forget to uncomment the appropriate line in the physics.h file.

The GMK files and library need to be copied to your engine directory as specified in the documentation.You should right click on the T3D folder in the DLL project within Visual Studio.

Does it say "T3D" or is that my project name ie: GMKTest with all it own subfolders?
I ask because I see a T3D folder in my project/solution explorer in GMKTest/source files/engine/
I have installed 1_8_2, made a new project, copied files from GMK to my new project folders (GMKTest)
and launched VC2008expres by opening:
C:\torque\TGEA_1_8_2\projects\GMKTest\buildfiles\visualStudio 2008\gmktest.sln
thanks again for the help

It is the "T3D" in your GMKTesk/source files/engine folder in the solution explorer.

Have you noticed that the default player is the jetpack, you can't jump, but if you jet around the AI loose track of the player and stop shooting? Is this a bug? Or a limit of how the AI can see?
